Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

The scene in Cartoon Wars is still the most memorable part of it to me.

Of those the ones that list among my favorites include And They Call It Bobby Love, Returning Japanese, and Patch Boomhauer on the list. Their honorable mentions are pretty good too with Propane Boom, Wings Of The Dope, Bobby Goes Nuts, Dances With Dogs (One of the few 'wacky' episodes that totally succeeds), Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Clown, and Death Picks Cotton all being some of the best in the series.

A Firefighting We Will Go, Three Days Of The Kahndo, and Three Coaches & A Bobby might be the funniest the show has ever been, though.

I can never really decide what my favorite episode of KotH is but, if I had to pick one, I think I might have to go with "Aisle 8A". It's a great episode about growing up and Hank putting a blanket over Connie to take her to the hospital never fails to crack me up.

I think the one episode I always come back to is the volunteer firefighting one. I'd say that's my favorite episode as a whole.

Boomhouer's retelling of the story is probably the best part of "A Firefighting We Will Go".

Seriously though, my top 10 would probably be:

1. A-Firefighting We Will Go
2. Death Picks Cotton
3. And They Call It Bobby Love
4. Nine Pretty Darn Angry Men
5. Serves Me Right for Giving General George S. Patton the Bathroom Key
6. Three Coaches and a Bobby
7. To Kill A Ladybird
8. Bwah, My Nose
9. Patch Boomhauer
10. Three Days of the Kahndo

That was incredibly hard and I'm still missing classics.

Bottom 10:

1. Racist Dawg
2. Mrs. Wakefield
3. Junkie Business
4. A Rover Runs Through It
5. Twas The Nut Before Christmas
6. Pilot
7. King Of The Ant Hill
8. I'm With Cupid
9. Keeping Up With Our Joneses
10. Pigmalion

I would only consider the first half bad episodes, the other half suffer from some strange OOC material or just aren't what I look for in KOTH. I think the last two are actually really good, for instance, just not "KOTH good".

FUNCTION DAMN YOU.

Funny stuff. It just never comes off as KOTH to me. That doesn't mean it isn't funny, though.

I like Pigmalion, but it really is a rather dark and creepy episode.

Spark Of Spirit

It's a good episode, but it's not really King Of The Hill. It's like they produced a script for the wrong show.

But again, it's not even bad. Just out of place.

I saw Bobby Goes Nuts was coming on and sat down and watched it for the first time in years since Avaitor spoke so highly of it. He was right. I ended up recording the entire episode because I was laughing so much. The look on Hank's face when he heard the part of Bobby's fight story about letting go his purse was priceless.
